On Saturday, July 6th, starting at 1 PM game time, fanchuans will fight to the death while dodging triks and boarders to win an island and more.

Event details:1. To enter, send a PM to Harrjm with your pirate name. Ship name will be submitted later after location of SMH is known. PMs must be received by midnight on July 1st. You may have any number of shipmates help you in the event and you do not need to send me their names.2. A few days before the event, I will announce which island is closest to the Atlantis where the event will take place. You are responsible for moving your ship to the correct location before the event starts.3. Starting at noon on Saturday, you will be jobbed into the event crew and will receive an Atlantis map. Stay in the event crew so that you can hear event announcements.4. At 12:45, I will announce a schedule for when each ship must enter the Atlantis board (not the safe zone). It is your responsibility to sail to the Atlantis location and enter the board on time. Failure to enter the board within 60 seconds of your assigned time will result in disqualification. You may wait in the safe zone of the Atlantis board until it is time for you to enter. New ships will enter every 2 minutes, 2 or 4 at a time depending on the total number of participants, and the order of entry will be random.5. Fanchuans must try and sink each other while avoiding being sunk or taken over by boarders. Ships may not enter the safe zone or a citadel after their scheduled entry time.5a. Fanchuans may not enter the board before their scheduled time. If you get bumped onto the board by accident, return to the safe zone as quickly as possible.6. The event will continue until only one fanchuan is left. In the case of a tie (both ships sink in the same turn), the winner will be determined by a group swordfight between the tied crews.

If Tyranny loses the island to either a bk or a player flag before July 6th will another island be selected or not?

If the island is lost between now and the event, the prize of 250k will be given.

N also PM to enter im guessing is also midnight game time? Just wanted to make sure that was right.

PM to enter, yes. Just send a PM to Harrjm with your pirate name and ship name. Event will take place in game time (PDT).

Can I PM you to enter, and leave the ship name out until the location is released?

Yes, you can submit your name only. I know the location will be random, so a swabby may be costly depending on location

How are you planning to obtain enough charts the same arena?

Charts for this event are being provided by your neighborhood OMs. Thus why we will need to know how many teams are entering so we can get charts beforehand.

May I enter event but leave Fanchuan name until you find out location? Obviously I have a few of them spread out and would prefer to move one to location that is already nearby.

Ship name isn't needed until the week of the event. Once we know the location, I will need the ship name to enter into my sheet. :)

We will not be providing stock. You do not have to start at Swampfen. You can start at Olive/Dendrite which both have stock.

or swabbie a Fanchuan to Swampfen and move stock from Dragon's Nest on a sloop...

Why is it that you have a two minute bonus if you are the last called?It seems to me that everyone should be there and just go in every two turns or so.

The rules are there to make sure it is organized for entry. If all payers had to enter on the same turn, it could cause someone to enter and exit on accident the 2nd turn.

Looked like event went really well, I got roped into being a sailor on one of the ships so didn't get to enjoy watching as much as I would of liked. Great event and thank you to all at Tyranny that made it possible.
